Hi Ed! Well, he's right. I dallied with Debian 5 for a month last week and couldn't get firefox or thunderbird to install. The clones of these on the D repositories just don't get it at all. Ubuntu 9.04, however, is stunning. Still having the same issue getting dabo installed on Ubuntu 9.04 as I had on Ubuntu 8.10, though. Don't yell at me yet, though. I still have all those old emails from last time. If I review them I might figure it out. p...@pete-desktop:~$ cd $HOME p...@pete-desktop:~$ mkdir src mkdir: cannot create directory `src': File exists p...@pete-desktop:~$ cd src p...@pete-desktop:~/src$ svn checkout http://svn.dabodev.com/dabo/trunk dabo svn: OPTIONS of 'http://svn.dabodev.com/dabo/trunk': Could not resolve hostname `svn.dabodev.com': Host not found (http://svn.dabodev.com) p...@pete-desktop:~/src$ svn checkout http://svn.dabodev.com/dabo/trunk dabo svn: OPTIONS of 'http://svn.dabodev.com/dabo/trunk': Could not resolve hostname `svn.dabodev.com': Host not found (http://svn.dabodev.com) p...@pete-desktop:~/src$ cd src bash: cd: src: No such file or directory p...@pete-desktop:~/src$ svn checkout http://svn.dabodev.com/dabo/trunk dabo U dabo/ide/PrefEditor.cdxml Checked out revision 5231. p...@pete-desktop:~/src$ cd /usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages p...@pete-desktop:/usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages$ sudo ln -s $HOME/src/dabo/dabo dabo p...@pete-desktop:/usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages$ cd $HOME/src/dabo/demo p...@pete-desktop:~/src/dabo/demo$ python DaboDemo.py Traceback (most recent call last): File "DaboDemo.py", line 6, in <module> import dabo ImportError: No module named dabo p...@pete-desktop:~/src/dabo/demo$ :-) It's there, the command just can't find it.
